Our beloved Family Pottery Workshop is back - crafted for parents, kiddos, aunties, uncles, and anyone ready to play, create, and make memories together.
In this 1.5-hour session, you’ll step into the joy, the wobble, and the wonderfully creative mess of the pottery wheel. Expect giggles, clay-covered hands, and those sweet moments where everyone forgets the rules and simply enjoys making something beautiful.
You’ll learn the basics, try your hand at the wheel, and tap into that childlike spark we all carry - no experience needed, just a willingness to have fun.
Come slow down, create together, and make something perfectly… Not Yet Perfect.

The teachers were patient, fun, and incredibly supportive. My daughter usually has trouble sitting still, but she was completely immersed in the session—the time flew by, and we honestly could have spent the whole day there. We found ourselves fully focused, yet completely relaxed. It was such a special and memorable experience.
  • 5/5 from Katey-Jane Wikitera, attended May 2025: wow best freaking experience ever! we had ruth as our teacher and we loved her. so gentle so caring so beautiful! she’s patient and attentive! we love you ruth thankyou for such a pleasurable experience! definitely worth the time and trip, we will be visiting again!! wheelchair and disability friendly
  • 5/5 from Jasmine Gregory, attended May 2025: My daughter is very pleased with her product. The teachers are helpful.
  • 5/5 from Morgane Riou, attended May 2025: The teachers were really patient and helped my son, 5 years old. We had a fantastic time!
  • 5/5 from Stephen Loh, attended Apr 2025: Teacher was very helpful. We did try to make a bowl using a wheel. We were given many tries with fresh clay.
  • 5/5 from Jamie Ly, attended Apr 2025: Ruth was a great tutor and guide. She was so encouraging. Class was very interactive.
  • 5/5 from Karen Witten, attended Apr 2025: The teachers were welcoming and approachable. The demonstration was very good and instructions excellent. I took my 8 year old daughter and it was the first time for both of us ever doing pottery and we both loved it. The time flew by. We loved that it was scaffolded for people of all abilities and ages with enough freedom to be creative.
  • 5/5 from Martin Ferris, attended Apr 2025: Excellent work, enjoyed the class thoroughly, highly encourage everyone to give it a go.
  • 4/5 from Olivia Yates, attended Apr 2025: Enjoyed the experience with my niece, Ruth and Lucy were patient with assistance and guidance. Sadly, too short to really get into the feel of pottery. I think 2h workshop would be more appropriate. Did manage 2 items and can not wait to see what they will look like. Thanks
  • 5/5 from Renee Ripley, attended Mar 2025: We attended a family pottery class which was a birthday gift for my 10 year old. We absolutely loved it and my daughter keeps asking when we can do the next one. Highly recommend ️️️️️
  • 5/5 from Natalie Barnett, attended Mar 2025: Did this workshop with my 6 year old and we both loved it. Teacher Lucy was beautiful (calm, soothing presence, very helpful, lovely disposition, shared her knowledge and helped make our pieces look good). Would def look to do this workshop again. Studio was gorgeous with lots of natural light. Highly recommend
  • 5/5 from Pavan Rewatkar, attended Mar 2025: It was a great experience. Lucy was very patient with the students and has helped everyone. We liked the overall experience. I started to get better with the clay towards the end and it was very satisfying.
  • 4/5 from Laura Hansen, attended Mar 2025: The setting and environment was lovely, our teacher was friendly and helped us new beginners. However at the end we were asked to pay an additional $20 for each extra piece we made, considering we had already paid for the session and was not advised of this at the beginning? I could not tell my son he couldn’t take home his extra artwork and ended up paying an extra $60. That part I was disappointed in.
  • 5/5 from Tammy Chong, attended Feb 2025: Lucy was a fantastic instructor and the environment was so welcoming for beginners. My 7yr old and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
  • 5/5 from Paul Kowal, attended Jan 2025: Lovely instructor, beautiful location, time went quickly, could have used more time 'on the wheel'
  • 5/5 from Greg Slater, attended Jan 2025: The facility, equipment and teaching was all 5 star!
  • 5/5 from Ee May Cheung, attended Jan 2025: We did this activity as a family of 4, with kids aged 6 and 9. It was a very fun class! Wheel throwing is definitely more challenging than I expected, and we were all keen to give it a go again. The class was well-organised, the teacher engaged and offering constant supervision and assistance. If anything, I would recommend kids be slightly older than 6 when trying this out. The pedal is too far to reach (although doesn't matter much once the wheel gets going), and because of the size of the wheel it was hard for the younger one to reach. I would also like the class to be perhaps half an hour longer - gives you more time to explore, make mistakes, and then still be able to create a piece to keep. Definitely would recommend this!
  • 5/5 from Freya Barr, attended Jan 2025: Our teacher, Lucy, was great as was the class. My daughter and I had a great time and could have stayed for much longer. Good size group for this type of class too.
  • 5/5 from David Keefe, attended Sep 2024: Lucy was awesome. We were lucky to have her to ourselves. Very calm and relaxing with excellent teaching skills. A beautiful morning for a father and daughter
  • 5/5 from Abby Bradfield, attended Sep 2024: Did the course with my family and a fab time was had by all. Our teacher was great!
  • 5/5 from Mirey Lopez, attended Aug 2024: Went for our "pottery" anniversary with our 6 year old. We al had a lovely time. The instructor was patient and made the activity fun!
  • 5/5 from Claire Clark, attended Jul 2024: My 12 yo twins attended this and absolutely loved it. In their words, "it was the best". It was very hands on and they loved learning new skills. They are already wanting to rebook for another session
  • 5/5 from Katy Fredericks, attended Jul 2024: My 10 year old and myself absolutely loved the class, new obsession unlocked! Thank you
  • 5/5 from John Edge, attended Jul 2024: We had a great time. Emma was warm and friendly with plenty of helpful tips.
  • 5/5 from Gavin Matten, attended Jul 2024: Family memory making occasion Lucy, was fantastic, warm, informative, great teacher Lovely, inviting venue, plenty of light and ambience Yes, plenty of material available Learnt how to use the wheel and make an article, like bowl, mug, vase Lucy was just lovely; she made the class so enjoyable. Maybe a little more insight into the structure of the time in the class would have helped us as the participants to pace ourselves better and get more done, as all too quickly the time was up.
  • 5/5 from Rachel Nell, attended Jul 2024: We had a fun experience and thoroughly enjoyed our session! Teacher was friendly, helpful and made the whole experience so much more joyful! Thank you!

  • 5/5 from Kristina Noble, attended Jun 2024: Emma was so lovely - very patient and kind. It was such a fun experience with friends. Emma helped to fix up our mistakes like a champ so we had some nice pieces by the end - they were defo "not yet perfect" before Emma's Dr skills! If it wasn't for Emma the dip and chip bowl would never have been made Thank you so much - would highly recommend
  • 5/5 from Mick Weir, attended Jun 2024: We (2 adults, 2 kids) arrived to find out our class had been overbooked. Mistakes happen and Lucy could not have been more apologetic or more accomodating in rescheduling us for later that day. Lucy was an amazing teacher and the class was a barrel of fun. The kids (13 & 9) have already asked to go again. We will definitely return.
  • 5/5 from Jules Smith, attended May 2024: Jaya and I had this session for Jaya’s 11th birthday. She has been doing some clay work at home and I thought she would like doing some wheel work. She really enjoyed it, as did I. Tess and Ruth were great and very involving and helpful
  • 5/5 from Timothy David Scrine, attended Apr 2024: Great experience for my daughter and I. Very well run. Will be doing it again.
